The PRT® Certification Program was developed in an effort to provide effective and efficient training to professionals in geographically-distant areas. We offer five levels of certification that must be completed sequentially. Participants work through the training materials at their own pace, demonstrating their skill level by completing a written exam (Level I) or videotaping themselves implementing the procedures highlighted in the training (Level II-IV). Participants who meet fidelity of implementation will be formally certified and able to implement PRT at that level in their own communities.
To register, please complete the Certification Registration Form and submit payment using one of the links provided below. For groups of five or more, please contact us at prtautismcertification@gmail.com.
